When I was little i used watercolor pencils by dipping it in water 🤦
lmao same!
samee
That still works, it just makes the pencil lay down more pigment and makes it fuller when u color in with it
This is a legit technique and I used it in some of my art classes! No shame in using art supplies in “unintended” or unusual ways
That actually works too, it makes the pencil easier to colour, but won't spread like water in watercolour.
“No one has ever been able to explain it so don’t even try!”
Science: let me introduce myself
The scientist that came up with the concept: 🥲
The water color has chemicals so it activates the pencils. By the way I'm a 10 year old child so this guy is just stupid.
artists ARE scientists! It’s just gum Arabic and pigments in a pencil.
@@jellybeangacha3461 well he understand that but he is trying to make the video exciting and interesting.
Making fun of people on the internet is not something a ‘10 year old’ should be doing
The concept of Joking : let me introduce myself
In defense of the markers: they're a WHOLE different thing that takes years of practice, but if you have that practice under your belt, you can do mind-blowing things with them. Please don't give up on the water color markers!
Any helpful pointers to those who are new to watercolour markers. Thanks 😊
Hide marks by putting them in the outlines of drawings
@@ishathiru3516use a plastic sheet or palette on the side and a brush. If you want to blend colors, just rub the watercolor marker tips on the plastic and mix the colors there and use water to dilute and that way you can blend colors without trying to mix it on your paper and ruining the paper and you can vary intensity of color and application with more control. I use them on a pallets with a brush for the first few layers and then I use the markers themselves directly on the paper for the more saturated areas and details.
As someone else who was able to create one of my most beautiful works of art with watercolor markers, I'm also sad he gave up on them so quickly. He didn't really experiment or play around with them before jumping straight to a drawing, and they're just not the kind of thing to jump straight into like that without some playing around to see how they work, how to blend them, and where to mark your lines using the markers. I'm by no means an expert at using the things - I only played around with them for about 24 hours beforehand and if asked to make something new and amazing with them, I probably couldn't do it - but I can see the potential they hold.
Most work I did was quite small, but personally I used the marker to draw the shadows first, then used a brush to draw the ink out from there.
Watercolor pencils help me so much with my paintings. I use them for fine details and shading, and blend them out to create depth and detail. If I want to add extra shiny reflection on items or eyes, I’ll even dip the tip of my white pencil in water and then dab it on so it’s more opaque. Such a great tool!!!

I actually really like water color markers and have been using them for a while! They work really well if you just don’t apply the marker directly on the thing you’re painting. Like, I’ll put a few dots of the marker in the margins of my sketch book, pick up the color from the paper with my paint brush, and then paint my sketch from there if that makes sense. If you do apply the marker directly onto the picture, just be sure to use it sparingly and the marks left behind from it shouldn’t be nearly as bad, and it’s easier to shade that way. They’re really great, they just don’t work quite like traditional water colors, but there are some work-arounds for that.
They are beautiful with wet on wet technique

I was thinking the same
That's wut i said LOL
Agree bro has huge lips
A water-soluble binder mixes with the pigments, holding the color together within the pencil
Each pen is filled with a water-soluble, dye-based ink that can be applied directly to your canvas or dipped into water to dilute the color - Answers found on google; credits to google
Watching someone work with watercolour pencil is very satisfying! You should do them more often
Watercolor pencils are my absolute favorite.
The cool thing for me about them, is that the blend incredibly, incredibly well. I barely ever use them as watercolors with water, just as color pencils, that blend so much better than even my most expensive color pencils.
I saw a painting that someone who used the watercolor pencils had done, and the colours were vibrant and look just as beautiful as watercolor paint.
I'd recommend the
watercolor pencils definitely.... 📝✏️
You should definitely try the derwent inktense watercolour pencils, they are my absolute favourite watercolour pencils 😁🌻
Verdad!! 🤩🥰😃👍🏾
something I like to use, and don't call me crazy, is a mix of both! use the markers as a base and draw with the pencil on top! it's super cool to see both material's colours blend together and nicely!!
I had watercolor pencils as a kid but I never knew how to use them 😭
My best trick for markers is to put them in a surface they can't dry to! Then you have ultra pigmented color until you run out. I usually use the back of a glove or a piece of plastic and just scribble a bit in a circle and dip the water brush in that
I just bought the watercolor pencils (all thanks to my mother who is also an artist), it's easy and fun for me to blend colors, and keeps me practicing color blend more and more
We actually used water color pencils during art yesterday and it was really fun
I use regular pencils and dip em in water- that works too
My favourite medium are the watercolour pencils. They arent as stiff as other mediums.
You can just draw or if you suddenly get the urge to get a flowy watercolour vibe just add water.
I have a question… what would you recommend for a good color pencil set for professionals?
"Where can I buy them?"-- my mind
(Although I know I can search up a shop to buy them"
I am not a artist it's not even a hobbie but in school when I just had to do my art homework I always painted with water color pencil they are literally magic
Hi,
I’ve used both mediums before and I would recommend you to try putting the watercolour pencil on a piece of thick paper while pressing it and then using your brush after wetting it to pick up the colour then try to paint your drawing, it’s kind of like a pallet and canvas
And, for the markers try colouring a small section and then using your brush ( it helps to get the paint a little lighter)
Hope this helps😊
It would be fun to experiment with the markers, all the same!! I've often wanted exactly that :)
The markers would be amazing for solid colour backgrounds
I love my water colour pencils. They are so fun and a love to work on my watercolor paintings and using the pencils to add value
I really like your voice it’s relaxing and soothing
You could use it for sunsets and sunrises to make it blend easier and you can get the right proportions
As someone who works closely with watercolour markers/pencils for ages now, I can say it's completely magic
I remember I used to give my friends temporary tattoos in art class with colored pencils by dipping them in water. (They were normal colored pencils though, this just reminded me of it)
i just did a painting and i used watercolour pencils watercolour markers, watercolour and gouache on it, they all work so good together
I usually dipp a normal pencils into watercolors to use it to highlight small lines on the drawing.
I have both and both are love but personally i prefer water based markers they are so pigmented and realistic ✨❤️
I know water color pencils are really popular for doll customization, when used with the MSC spray. A paper like surface is created.
Watercolor markers are actually pretty, cool, you just have to use them differently. I love them and have a lot, and I use them many deferment ways. I don’t color first and then add water, tho, because they dry before you can paint with them.
your voice is so soothing and wholesome
If you've already tried them, just ignore this, but my favourite are watercolour _crayons._ They lift better than other previous two, and they blend nicely too. My only gripe is that they are kinda chalky, so I prefer to just use my watercolours. It's still really fun to play with though ♡.
If you color the markers on a separate piece of paper and picked it up with your brush before transferring it to the main sheet of paper I'm sure it'd work a lot better
tombow markers are really nice watercolour markers! you can also buy a clear/blending tombow that when used quickly is really good for getting rid of streaks
its also what the game dev of 1 hour 1 life uses to make the graphics
The water spreads the color of the watercolor marker and pencil but it will lighten the color a bit because they need to give the most supply of color to the water that was put in the colors
I usually use a laminated palette or some plastic in place of it when working with watercolor markers. Then I use a water brush pen from the palette to the paper. I’m sure with all the comments someone has mentioned this technique; I would love to see you try watercolor markers again.
Fun trick , use some porcelain maybe a unused old tea set I had a few plates left from mine it was literally just a tea set left in our house by the previous owners and it was a cheap set, but any type of porcelain flat preferably, take any type of marker I used my jumbo sharpies and color in a square or more depending on how much of that color you need , spritz it with some water and get your brush and drag it across the marker on the plate blending with the water and you have water color paint 😁 you can either use water or lotion - they both work I used Nivea lotion, the Shea oil infused kind leaves the art work spelling lovely but I used it because it makes more of a paste paint consistency instead of water color 😊
I use watercolor pencils and watercolor brush pens. The pencils allow me to do a lot of base details while the brushes let me control finer details much easier. I recommend watercolor paper for both so your paper doesn't bleed.
For watercolor markers I’ve always used them by drawing in a watercolor pan and then adding water to it and using it like regular watercolor
I don't think I've seen these before. That's cool
Someone who spent a whole lotta years playing with watercolor markers here! (Tombow makers are my absolute favorite art supply of all time lol!) I like to use them by swatching the colors on the side and then using them as normal watercolors before layering with the markers overtop. This creates the saturated and deep areas you want, then blending outward. For certain colors it’s difficult to get the initial colors to come up so usually I like to fill in around edges instead of the middle, so that it creates a sort of soft/hard line shaded effect! Yellows and pinks tend to have an easier time coming off the paper in my experience while blues can be quite stubborn! With your workflow I’d suggest using the markers to add to your shading (or a bright yellow can create a stunning highlight!), bc they can make the darkest darks really stand out and it’ll crank up the saturation in a really graphic way!
I love the little wizard panda 🐼
I've had watercolour pencils for 3 whole years and never knew they could do this-
Watercolor pencils are colored pencils that are made with a water-soluble pigment. When you combine them with water, the pigment activates and spreads on your canvas for a look that is similar to what you would get if you were using watercolor paint and a brush but with finer lines.
cross-eyed spidey vs. pouty-lipped batman? i'd watch that movie
I personally would put a small amount of the marker since it’s more saturated when laying down colours. But that’s just my personal preference 😊
I never liked that the pencil would leave a bit of a pencil mark like the markers did for you so i used to wet my brush and pick up the pigment from the pencil with it like that! I think that was a good indication that I would later fall in love with pan watercolours lol
This helped because I got watercolour pencils on my birthday 2 days ago
I have pens that work like watercolor, and once I found it out, they are used A LOT
Hey Scott, I noticed the watercolour pencils you used seem to be fairly softly pigmented, and didn’t necessarily blend out very well, at least in your test sections. I wanted to suggest you try out “Derwent Inktense” pencils, if you’re interested, as I’ve been finding they blend nicely, they’re highly pigmented and are generally really fun to use, and have some differences to typical watercolour pencils :)
I have a set of water coulour markers and if you've already brought them and don't wasn't it to go to waste I suggest drawing with them on a paint pallet and you can use them as usual with a brush :D
I like to use the markers. I put some lines on my pallet and add water, so its basically from a pan. I don't have a lot of materials so this gives me more to work with :). Markers on paper directly i dont like as much
you should try the stabilo watercolor pencils they work really well also i love your art you ar such a insperation to me :)
WHAT!!! Watercolor markers!!!!!! I WANT THOSE 😤🤩🤩
You could take ur wet brush and just softly touch the tip of the pencle with it and paint, or color a little circle of that color and add water so it's like a little pallet.
There are Crayola oil pastels 'portrait series' that do the same thing.
They still make them eventhough I was a teen when first introduced to them [Late 90's/2000]
They can come up to 24 and they are really great.
I know that Mr S hates using them but this might be the key.
No baby oil needed.
Watercolour crayons? My teacher introduced me to them and it blows my mind whenever I think about it
Normally, when I use watercolor markers, I use a paper plate or the little paint holders (idk what they’re called) and color onto the paper plate, then I add water to it using the little water brushes that hold water in the tubes and you can drip them out. I mix the water and the marker and then use it to paint
I love your videos and you are the best artist ever and you are my inspiration for art and my idol
Heres a tip: you can put the water colour markers on paint palate or a plastic sheet then put a drop of water on top of it boom it will work just like watercolor.
I had no idea this could happen I have watercolor pencils and I must try this out
With the pencils I like that I don't have to wet all the colors.
i do have both and gotta admit i do prefer the markers over the pencils xD ive done a whole set (110x cards) of playing cards using my watercolor markers and they turned out great! its just the different techniques u can apply using them proberly
like dont wait to long to blend them with water on paper
do not paint with em on damp paper
paint on a palette and mix it like regular watercolors b4 applying them on paper (makes em more translucent)
but as with any medium try it out and test it wether u like it or not =D
Sometimes you need to put the marker ink on a non-porous surface, then pick it up with your paint brush. My Zigs are ‘da bomb’!! 🥰😃👍🏾
Usually I'd scribble a spot on a separate paper using the watercolor pencil and from that I'll wet it and use it like normal watercolor. I do this when I dont have enough color choices on my watercolor palette.
This is wonderful to know! I recently bought a mixed media book so I could whip out an old set of watercolor pencils. They're not in tip top condition, but... They behave better than those markers!! Hahahahah.
TIP FOR WATERCOLOUR PENCIL NOOBS:
One thing I've done to overcome the difficulty in blending shades or getting harsh pencil lines? I sharpen them into a small cup, add a few drops of water, & then use the colour from my makeshift pan. 💕
You can rub the marker on another sheet of paper Or on a pallet then use the brush as normal. You can do this with any water-based markers even crayola I learned at least for the markers work best this way.
Okay bet, water color pencils are like regular water colored dishes, but just in pencil form inside a wooden vessel
I used a set of 30 watercolor pencils to make a portrait of Dobby, and it may very well be my best painting XD
I learn so much from you thank you 🙏
I can explain..... it uh... ✨magic ✨
Did not know water colour markers existed until this moment
You can also color the markers on a pallete then dip into it like regular water color and from there its like normal more water less saturation less water more pigment!
Oh you can also put the paintbrush right to the tip of the marker as well
The cross eyes spiderman has been howling
A thing I like doing with watercolor pencil is puting water on the tip and coloring with it... it's super saturated and feels amazing on paper. But it can damage the wood so I would avoid do it with expensive markers
I suggest that you put the marker in a cup of water, it may help with the saturation...
hope this helps!
Please make a small
Tutorial or tips for Water colour pencils
Amazing drawings! Or… paintings… idk but I love the string out spidey!
Batman look like he gonna give joker a spoch
Theirs a different kind of watercolor markers that I use from the brand tombow ABT and they've worked pretty well. Love the art as well
It is just dried and not super dry it still has to have a little water so it spreads if you remember from when you were little you had these round dried discs you added water too it like that
I think you should try putting water with the brush first then put the slightest touch of the marker tips, idk if it will work tho.
Everyone: *talking about their pencils*
Me: daaang Batman got some LiPs
I love watercolor
If you wet them you can draw on skin. Fun for face painting.
I dip my watercolor markers into water and they work perfectly.
A tip for the markers: put a little(like draw a few lines) on a pallet and add the water there, to get more transparent looks. Like you can use it just like you would normal watercolor paint from the tubes if you want. Lil bit on pallet, then add your water and voila
I have have water-colour markers that are a bit less saturated and usually I just draw with them but sometimes I just drew a bit on the water colour palette and added water and then used them like normal water colours(because I don't have any) worked pretty well :)
At least for me (but I don't really have Experience with water colours more with acrylics). But I guess If you want that, you can just get normal water colours😅
Spider man with pupils is actually not bad, adds more expression.
Thanks for the tip 😃
I think a good way to use watercolor markers is to first use them to paint a non-absorbent surface like glass, and then add water to them, and with that paint on paper, since they would be like simple watercolors. I felt important to say this since it is a way that I can think of that is quite good
Those pencils look so pretty!! Where did you get them??
We were specifically told at the start of the school year to buy watercolour pencils instead of regular pencils
i used to use normal colour pencils as watercolour pencils and just DESTROY the paper. luckily i was going for a rundown sort of look so it matched up.
Literally magic lol
So far the only water color I use is brush markers. I just scribble it in a pan and pick it up from there. I tend to make new colors so I have multiple scribbles in a pan then blend them in and bam a new color.
